[pygame] Mac OS X PyGame .ogg/.mp3 support?

[Daniel Lindsley <cowz@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Pygame Users,

    I'm somewhat new to Pygame. I've followed some tutorials online  
and seem to have hit a snag. I'd like to use either a .ogg or .mp3  
file to play as background music for my game. One tutorial I read  
said this works fine and that Pygame supports those formats. However,  
when running Pygame, the only type of sound file I can get to load  
is .wav under Mac OS X. I'm wondering if I am missing libraries or  
what might be the issue. A sample traceback and full (contrived)  
source follows.

import os, pygame

pygame.init()
size = width, height = 100, 100
screen = pygame.display.set_mode(size)

bg = pygame.Surface(screen.get_size())
bg = bg.convert()
bg.fill((255, 255, 255))

pygame.mixer.music.load("Tech.mp3")
pygame.mixer.music.play(-1, 0.0)

while True:
  screen.blit(bg, (0, 0))
  pygame.display.flip()
